![“ALL YOUR PUPPIES ARE BELONG TO US” | The post I’ve been wanting to write for a long time. Also, LOLs. Also also, try not to laugh.

{I love flickr} Happy New Year’s Eve, you crazy kids! Hope you’re living it up somewhere out there, and with an umbrella handy! The boy and I will be ringing in the ’10 with a darling little bottle of Pommery Champagne – a gift to us from Reims, France, from my wonderful dad. (Thanks Dad. [...]
Bakerella does some amazing things with a little bit of flour, sugar and some lollie sticks. But this project takes the cake. It goes on, as you can imagine… But, here’s the beauty part: And, stop right there. That’s it – that’s where I start to tear up. *** Find out what prompted all of [...]
*** Scroll to the bottom of this post to turn on the musical stylings of my favorite new artist, Warpold Wine. Mmm mmm goodness. *** So, one big decision I’ve made in the process of planning my wedding is that I’m personally going to address the envelopes that will hold my save-the-dates, and then, based [...]
Hey everybody, hope the holidays are treating you well this year. With Christmas days away, unless you have car (not the case for a city-dweller like me), I’m not so sure you’ll be able to grab these gifts in time. But here’s the thing, and let’s be honest with ourselves… we’ll probably just want to [...]
There are lots of reasons why the holidays are one of my favorite times of the year, but ranking high among them are the following two: ~ dreamy and delightful holiday decor ~ pretty packaging perfection by incredibly creative crafters Combine those two with my absolute favorite thing in general and of all time – [...]
Want to make a serious impact this holiday season, but feel your typical treats just aren’t cutting it this year? Or maybe you kinda sorta forgot to buy gifts for your family and friends, and it’s December 22 already. Whoa, came outta nowhere, right?! Okay, no worries, everything’s fine. Bakerella has some major league ideas [...]
All signs point to yes on this one, ladies and gents… ~ PLUS ~ THEY’RE ENGAGED! It has been confirmed that Ottawa Senators center Mike Fisher, 29, proposed to country music superstar Carrie Underwood, 26, this past Sunday, December 20th. She said yes! Love it. My fiancé and I have serious love for Carrie Underwood… [...]
In her “Notes on Nursing: What It Is and What It Is Not,” English nurse Florence Nightingale wrote that light – preferably sunlight – plays an essential role in the process of getting well. She also said that those of us who are ailing “should be able to see … sky and sunlight,” as she [...]
Don’t you wish you could wrap your gifts this perfectly? I do. But, unless we’re sending our packages via email – aka not sending real gifts to people in real life, a serious holiday-fail – we’ll just have to settle for a little human error in our gift wrapping efforts. Fortunately, there are gift wrapping [...]
Leslie’s Color Me Pretty posts on her blog, decor8, make me feel all warm and festive inside. Just look at the sweet, sweet goodness of these projects she created and photographed so brilliantly. Go Leslie, with your bad self! I love how you rock that hyper-creativity that so obviously flows through you in immeasurable quantities. [...]
Check this out on her blog, where you can purchase one that looks like this: … though I’m sure she’d let you buy the former if you know George personally. In fact she’d probably give it to you for free, seeing as the potential for the gift you’d be giving her is that much greater.
I count her among my favorite stationers. She makes fabulously pretty paper, and inspires me just as much as this lovely lady. Her name is Lisa Hoffman, and she’s the creative force behind Ceci New York… Lisa designed this luxurious wedding suite of lavender, deep purple and brilliant blue. Her paper perfection was the featured [...]
Adore these pieces. Found on a visit to simplesong. Made by French designer L’Atelier de madame M. Possibilities are endless, but I especially love the numbers for an escort card board, and the tags as labels for your favors.

Gala, of Gala Darling, has become one of those people I love without ever having met her. She did something quite simple, but still quite remarkable on December 15, and with it she touched so many hearts, including mine. What was it? A letter, written to herself. Stop doing the Hokey Pokey, because this is [...]
Just a glimpse of these vintage-inspired looks made me want to jump through my screen and try on all of them. The way I’d describe them is almost identical to the way Rodellee of Adore Vintage, which means a) I have a strong sisterly love for her, and b) I won’t attempt to do it [...]
These gift ideas caught my eye so firmly, that I just had to share. Though I think my love for them is quite apparent, given the very crudely exacto’d page tears on the right side of each leaf. Somehow, I need to learn an effective way to manage my excitement when I’m tearing that excitement [...]
